Good conversation shared can only improve the blogging community.

The Mic is On: We’re Talking About Twitter Apps

Filed Under SOB Business, Successful Blog | 242 Comments

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

Let Me Call You, TweetHeart

Twitter. Everyone is tweeting — well, almost everyone. Now we have our twitter accessorires. Over 200 applications have been added to the Twitterfield.

  • How do you use Twitter?
  • Which apps are your favorites?
  • What’dya wish for?
  • What happens if Twitter starts charging?


And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

Oh, and bring example links to share —

The Mic Is On: We’re Talking About Saving the World at Work

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

Co-host Mark Carter, Social Media Manager

What Are We Doing to Save the World? Tim Sander’s new book, Saving the World at Work, is about how individuals and businesess can do things to help the planet while still making a profit. He calls this change in our thinking, the Responsibility Revolution. We’ll be talking about responsible business citizenship and what that means. We’ll be talking about what we can do.

  • Does a company’s practices with the environment change whether you would buy their products do business with them?
  • Would you spend more for a product from a company that believes in Corporate Citizenship?
  • Do you see companies and individuals giving up dependence on paper and turning to digital forms of communication for more than email correspondence?
  • How can we help green up our companies, our communities, and our homes?
  • What part can individuals play in saving the world at work?


    • And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

    Oh, and bring example links about your ideas.
